Comments about Domke Gripper Camera Strap 1" - Black:
I got this strap to replace the strap that came with my camera. The branded strap tends to irritate my neck if I'm using it for several hours because of the way the edges are finished. I've been able to use this strap for hours at a time without any of that problem. It also stays on my should, if I choose to use it that way.
It's such a small price for something that is this big an improvement over what came with the camera! I highly recommend it!

This is the best camera strap!
Simple design - classic, no branding, the right width (even for my D800)
Dependable - strong, durable, rubber-grip
No swivel - no worry of hook malfunction, no metal stuff may scratch items in the bag

Comments about Domke Gripper Camera Strap 1" - Black:
I'm using this strap on my Nikon V1 and I have to say, it is perfect for that camera: grips the shoulder, very flexible, just the right width. Strap end is a tight fit through standard camera eyelets, but not a problem.

Comments about Domke Gripper Camera Strap 1" - Black:
I bought the first one of these about twenty years ago for a film camera. I still have that camera and strap. I bought another one for a digital camera.
It's low key, distributes the load well, and doesn't draw attention to itself or you. It's not plastered with logos, and the Domke name is tastefully "hidden" on a small tag.
It grips well, and slides well also. Just flip the strap over if you are carrying your camera across your chest.
Build quality is pretty much as good as the original. The adjusters are a little looser though compared to my original strap. Not enough to cause problems.
The leather finish protectors that go between the triangular split-rings and the camera body were annoying to install. I just didn't bother. My cameras end up with a "patina" from use anyway.
The strap is not padded, and it doesn't have any "give" to it like a neoprene one. I do not consider these problems as I don't like springy or puffy camera straps. If unlike me, you do like springy or puffy camera straps, I'd still suggest you try one of these. You may just change your mind.

Comments about Domke Gripper Camera Strap 1" - Black:
Worked well for users that prefer slighty thinner and more inconspicious straps than the thicker canon branded straps.

Comments about Domke Gripper Camera Strap 1" - Black:
I've been using these straps for some time now. Since I don't want to scream "I have a camera!!", this fits the bill perfectly. Also, they grip my shoulders nicely without being too bulky.
I use the 1 inch for a Leica or a NEX, if you plan on using a heavier camera, I'd choose a wider one.
Oh, and I don't miss the swivels -- I'm never worried about scratching the camera, or them "accidentally" opening.

Love the small straps, and this one has a no slip off the shoulder built right into it. Very Nice, as is Domke

Comments about Domke Gripper Camera Strap 1" - Black:
Grippy, light, basic strap. No padding, but for my use, I don't really need padding (I use a nice padded strap for my Nikons).
I was considering the one with the swivel but didn't want metal parts colliding with and scratching the camera when I put it in a bag. I use it on a Leica M3 and will probably get another for my Hexar RF (or AF).

Comments about Domke Gripper Camera Strap 1" - Black:
Nicely made with high quality materials and bar-tack stitching at critical stress points to prevent your gear from crashing to the pavement. Generous length enables cross-body carry by those of us with average to above-average height. Low key, stealth, no obvious branding. Very comfortable and breathable cotton canvas material allows sweat to evaporate, unlike neoprene.

Comments about Domke Gripper Camera Strap 1" - Black:
I was looking for a replacement strap for the one that came with my Fuji Finepix X100 camera. The one that was provided is very plain, doesn't seem very strong, and not that 'becoming' for a $1300.00 camera.I've always been pleased with Domke products, and wasn't looking to spend [$] for a fancy Artisian and Artist acrylic strap. This strap is perfect for me. It is a heavy sort of cotton blend, with rubber woven into the strap to keep it from slipping.All in all, a very nice, functional strap, without breaking the bank.Buy one from B+H!

Comments about Domke Gripper Camera Strap 1" - Black:
Domke straps are wonderful and I have one of the full size 1-1/2" straps for each DSLR or 35mm film camera (Mamiya RZ67 gets Optech instead...). The bigger straps are huge on micro four thirds camera (Olympus E-PL2) - this one is perfect

I have used thicker Domke straps with swivels on Nikon F, F2, F4, and on and on. I'm using this strap on a Lumix GF2. It's much better than the slippery logo adorned one that comes with the camera. Straps with advertising on them just make you look like a tourist/dork.
